International Cinema Listings plugin - Support Thread

[McBainUK]

Have noticed that the plugin no longer shows film details, this is because of a easycinema.com change. Working on a fix...

edit: same goes for SkyCity NZ

[McBainUK]

easycinema.com and SkyCity NZ has been fixed for the next release. Working on adding US/Canada sources before I post an update.

Version 2.1 of the International Cinema listings plugin is now available on the wiki.

Changes include:

• Added USA and Canada source (Zap2It).
  
• Now has an exe installer so all common library's are included.
  
• The plugin takes advantage of UI Elements v0.6 new features by checking for available updates to the plugin (no more checking the wiki/forums)
  

note: I hope to add Fandango as a source in a future release.

The plugin now looks for \SkinName\Cinema\skin.xml now instead of \SkinName\InternationalCinemaListings\skin.xml correct, so all I need to do is copy the directory in the Community Skins?

The installer created two skin directories:
cinema
internationalcinemalistings

The skin file was put in cinema.

When I ran the plugin I got a message that the skin file was not found in
internationalcinemalistings.

I copied the skin file from cinema to internationalcinemalistings and it works fine.

It is a little cumbersome to setup to begin with but once all the codes are in it works great. Thanks for adding the USA listings.

no it still looks for InternationalCinemaListings\skin.xml unless something has gone wrong..?

Ah a bug with the installer, will take a look and update it...

[McBainUK]

Installer on wiki updated. (no need to re-download only change is the skin install bug).

Haven't had a chance to install this yet, but wanted to thank you for doing the US additions. Really going to be nice to look at my Theater menu and see content again !

The cinema listings for the USA is working great. Zap2it covers all of my local theaters.

Course after one day, I've got a feature request...

I haven't followed this thread in the past since it didn't include the USA so this might have been asked already. Having shows listed by cinema is great. It might add a little more flexibilty to also be to list all available shows and then clicking the show title would list the theaters that it is playing at. A subset of the full list. Clicking the theater would then show the normal info about the showtimes, reviews etc.

Also this is really only for keyboard users. Pressing Cinemas acts like a back button when you are in the review page for a movie. It doesn't go back to Cinemas, it goes back to the previous page. Doesn't make much difference but I thought I would let you know.
